"Board Certified Criminal Trial Attorney 
T Member of Now Jersey di Florida Bart 
Thank you for your letter to me dated July 8, 2008 and the draft document dated, e-mailed and faxed 
to me at my office on June 30, 2008, styled "Notification of Identified Victims." I would like to 
address a few related issues. 
First, please note that we have several requests concerning any such notification. Specifically, we 
request that: 
(a) Any notification be sent to any individual by mail (or served upon their attorney, 
to the extent known), and we respectfully object to any service by hand, a method of 
service which carries the concomitant risk of conversations regarding the notification 
that potentially would place the federal authorities in a position of being advocates 
for civil litigation; 
(b) My notification be effectuated by a separate mailing to each individual without 
the inclusion of any language that appeared on the second page of your June 30, 2008 
memorandum; i.e. rather than including in each notification a large section listing 
"identified individuate with redactions other than the name of the recipient (which 
we contend would be a clear and impermissible signal to any individual that the 
notification is a broad notification to numerous other alleged victims). Rather, a 
simple one page notification directed only to the recipient, and limited to the 
information currently on the first page of your draft memorandum would suffice.

Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Document 362-43 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/10/2016 Page 3 of 3 
(c) You eliminate from any notification any language that is currently contained in 
the "acknowledgment" section of the June 30, 2008 memorandum; and 
(d) You supplement the notification with the Government's previously made 
representation that it is not vouching for the veracity of any claim by any identified 
individual. See Letter from J. Sloman to E. 
(10/25/07). 
Second, please note also that we do not understand your request that Mr. Epstein and his attorneys 
execute the rider / acknowledgment contained within your June 30 hand-delivered draft. 
Speeifically,we do not believe that the Non-Prosecution Agreement requires Mr. Epstein's execution 
of any such additional stipulation. Because we want to ensure that Mr. Epstein continues to strictly 
comply with the letter of the parties' agreement, we respectfully ask that you explain why you 
believe that the Non-Prosecution Agreement requires execution of your stipulation. 
Our understanding of the Non-Prosecution Agreement is that it does not require Mr. Epstein to 
"acknowledge" anything not already contained within the four corners of the written ageement. The 
agreement certainly contains no written term obligating that he "waive any evidentiary challenge to 
the introduction of a copy" of any "Notification of Identified Victims" in "any judicial proceeding 
between any identified individual" and Mr. Epstein, as your memorandum currently requests. 
Further, please note that your June 30 stipulation, as drafted, is not limited to Section 2255 
proceedings. Rather, yourJune 30 draft requires Mr. Epstein to waive evidentiary challenges in "any 
judicial proceeding" - - which clearly exceeds the bounds of the parties' written agreement. 
Third, I would respectfully request that you provide me with the names of the "pro bono lawyers" 
who, you indicated to me at our June 30 meeting at my office, were intending to represent certain 
persons identified on your June 30 draft notification, as well as any knowledge that the Government 
has as to how they were selected, and what communications the Government has had with them to 
date. 
Finally, please know that it is Mr. Epstein's firm intent to fulfill strictly each term and condition of 
his Non-Prosecution Agreement with the Government. Nothing hi this letter should be construed, 
however, as waiving any defense that may be available to Mr. Epstein under the parties' written 
agreement. 
I look forward to your response. Until then, I remain, 
V 
trul yours, 
Ja

Re: 
Jeffrey Epstein 
Dear Mr. Goldberger: 
Thank you for your letter of today's date regarding the proposed Victim Notification. 
Let me address some of the items in your letter. 
We have no objection to doing individual mailings. The Notification was drafted in 
that way in order to minimize the number of documents that Mr. Epstein would sign. Now 
that you have raised an objection to signing the Acknowledgment, each notification will list 
only the victim who is being notified. 
In light of Mr. Epstein's refusal to sign the Acknowledgment, the Acknowledgment 
portion has been deleted and the notification has been slightly modified in order to provide 
more complete information and it has been formatted as a letter rather than a more formal 
"Notification" document. 
We will not be including any statement that the U.S. Attorney's Office is not vouching 
for the veracity of any claim. As you know, the U.S. Attorney's modification of the 2255 
portion of the Agreement now limits our victim list to those persons whom the United States

was prepared to include in an indictment. This means that, pursuant to Justice Department 
policy, these are individuals for whom the United States believes it has proof beyond a 
reasonable doubt that each of them was a victim of an enumerated offense. There will be no 
statement one way or the other regarding the validity of any claim. 
You have asked for an explanation of why I believe the Acknowledgment portion is 
required by the lens of the Agreement. Under a strict reading of the Agreement, it is not 
required, other than to Acknowledge that the United States has performed its obligation of 
providing Mr. Epstein with a list of identified victims following his guilty plea and 
sentencing. The purpose of the Acknowledgment was to create one single document 
incorporating the parties' agreement on the single topic of the right to proceed under 18 
U.S.C. § 2255. This would avoid litigation regarding the victims' rights to have access to 
the original Non-Prosecution Agreement. Without such an express Acknowledgment by Mr. 
Epstein that the Notice contains the substance of that Agreement, I believe that the victims 
will have a justification to petition for the entire agreement, which is contrary to the 
confidentiality clause that the parties have signed. If you believe that particular words are 
objectionable, I am happy to consider a modification. 
As I mentioned to you last week, I will provide you with the names of the attorneys 
currently representing the victims when we have compiled all of that in fonnation. Some of 
the victims are represented by attorneys from the South Carolina Victim Assistance Network 
and the Maryland Crime Victims Resource Center, both of which were recommended by a 
victims' rights organization that receives grants from the Justice Department. 
If you have any suggestions for a modification of the Acknowledgment, please let me 
know. 
Sincerely, 
United States Attorney

and for Palm Beach County (Case Nos. 2006-cf-009454AXXXMB and 2008-cf-
009381AXXXMB) and was sentenced to a term of twelve months' imprisonment to be 
followed by an additional six months' imprisonment, followed by twelve months of 
Community Control 1, with conditions of community confinement imposed by the Court. 
In light of the entry of the guilty plea and sentence, the United States has agreed to 
defer federal prosecution in favor of this state plea and sentence, subject to certain 
conditions. 
One such condition to which Epstein has agreed is the following: 
"Any person, who while a minor, was a victim of a violation of an offense

rights to proceed under Section 2255 as she would have had, if Mr. Epstein
